International Association
for Cryptologic Research

Our Institute is part of the TUM Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering. We develop innovative technologies for embedded systems, to counteract new threats in hardware security. Physical Unclonable Functions (PUFs) – as important new security elements – and countermeasures against side channel leakage and fault attacks are only two of the exciting topics in the focus of our institute’s research. Our teaching activities range from lectures on basics in cryptology to lab courses where students design secure embedded systems on their own.

For research in the field of Countermeasures against Attacks on Physical Unclonable Functions we are searching for the closest possible point in time for a

Research Associate (m/f)

for a full time position.

Your Tasks:

• Carrying out your own research in the field of secure PUF concepts
• Participation in industry-related and scientific research projects
• Supervising students

You:

finished your master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Sciences or equivalent with outstanding grades.

• have strong focus on security.
• have profound knowledge in hardware attacks and counter measures
• have a sound education in information theory and error correcting codes
• are a creative thinking and independent working person, can work in teams, and are highly motivated.
• like to work with students.
• should have practical or theoretical previous knowledge on embedded systems.

We offer a very interesting position as research associate which is rich in variety and includes the ability to carry out a Doctoral thesis in engineering. With your research in the field of PUFs, you contribute to one of the main fields of the Institute for Security in Information Technology and are
